Question

Peter scored 15 goals during his second soccer season as a forward. He scored 6 fewer goals during his first season. The team as a whole scored 4 times as many goals as Peter during the two seasons. How many goals did the team score during the two seasons?

Answer 1

96 goals

Explanation:

Take his 15 and subtract 6, which gives you nine. He scored 15 for the second and 9 the first season. Add 15 and 9 to get 24. Multiply 24 by 4 to get the total amount of goals scored by the team.

24×4=96

Answer 2

The team scored 96 goals during the two seasons

Explanation:

Let take Peter goal for the second season as x

And take Peter goal for the first season as y

And take the goal scored by the whole team for the two seasons as z

So.

X = 15 goals

Y = 15 - 6 goals

Y = 9goals

Z = 4(x+y)

Z = 4( 15 + 9)

Z = 4 (24)

Z = 96

Therefore the goal scored by the whole team for the two seasons is 96goals
